Tafsir

Scholarly commentary explaining a verse — its context, its meaning and how the scholars have understood it.

Al-Hajj 22:16

Word by word

وَكَذَٰلِكَ أَنزَلْنَـٰهُ ءَايَـٰتٍۭ بَيِّنَـٰتٍ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَهْدِى مَن يُرِيدُ

And thus have We sent it [i.e., the Qur’ān] down as verses of clear evidence and because Allāh guides whom He intends.

وكما أقام الله الحجة من دلائل قدرته على الكافرين بالبعث أنزل القرآن، آياته واضحة في لفظها ومعناها، يهدي بها الله مَن أراد هدايته؛ لأنه لا هادي سواه.
